Yaw error cooperative compensation method and system for a variable pitch system

PendingCN122280765AImpellerFatigue loading
This disclosure provides a method and system for collaborative compensation of yaw error in a pitch control system. It acquires the blade's bending moment matrix, azimuth angle, and macroscopic yaw error, and uses asymmetric load decoupling and quantization techniques to convert the blade load into fixed d-axis tilting moment and q-axis yaw moment components. Subsequently, these moment components are subjected to dual-channel PI control to generate d-axis and q-axis pitch compensation commands, and the yaw feedforward signal is cleverly extracted from the q-axis integral term. Finally, based on the azimuth angle, the d-axis and q-axis pitch compensation commands are fused with the collective pitch command to obtain independent pitch commands for each blade. These commands are then combined with the yaw feedforward signal and macroscopic yaw error for collaborative control and execution, thereby achieving deep collaboration between the pitch control and yaw systems. This approach more accurately reflects the rotor's stress state and enables refined compensation, effectively reducing fatigue loads on the blades and tower base.
